OLW 204 Law of Tort-Part I,AGGREY WAKILI

 
(IV) Interests in Sanctity of Families [Seduction, Adultery, Enticements]; etc. 
 
Familiar forms of injuries or harm include: 
3
KLAR, Lewis N., Tort Law, Thomson Professional Publishing Canada, 1991, page 2.

(1) Injury to person [a person is slapped or beaten up by his neighbour]; 
(2) Damage to property [your neighbour opens a factory in his land and fumes 
from the factory destroy your crops], injury to your reputation and dignity [A 
local newspaper publishes a news item suggesting that you were once a violent 
robber], etc. 
 
A person suffering from the injury or damage is bound to look for redress. 
Redress here may involve some person or group of persons being required by 
law to do something or refrain from doing something in reparation of the 
damage caused to the plaintiff. 
 
There are several forms of redress envisaged by the Law of Torts:
(1) Redress may be in the form of monetary compensation. This type of redress 
in fact illustrates the major function of Law of Tort, in allocating and distributing 
loss. Law of Tort has developed rules which for example ensure that 
compensation is paid by persons best positioned in circumstances to pay.
 
(2) Injunction is another form of redress used to prevent the occurrence of harm 
in future. With injunction, the function of the Law of Tort is clearly “Preventive” 
or “deterrence”. We shall see how Law of Tort employs preventive mechanisms 
when we discuss the Tort of 
Nuisance
